livered the following patriotic, beautiful
and conservative address wbtoh was
greeted and interrupted with frequent
applause.
What means this grand pageant ? This
burnished armor, theae nodding plumes,
this martial musio? Why is the tramp
of the soldier heard on out streets and
why are the bosoms of this surging throng
heaving with emotions strong and unut
terable ? Does the war drum enmmon
on to arms and the roar ot aitillery fore
bode a coming oonfliot? Do we snuff
to-day the battle bretzs and feel them
epiiation of the battle charge ? Thank

love. The present oomes to pay tribute

her sincerity now and proof of futnre re

and earth applauds the purpose with the
hunderB of her artillery. We come to pay
honor to onr Confederate dead and to ac
cord heartfelt praise ta the mothers and
daughters of Maoon for this beautiful
and dnrable memorial of the heroism and
patriotism of our fallen heroes. The ho;e

work is accomplished. The shaft
